Question CLS 55 Tires

Need new tires for CLS 55 (stock 19s). Looking for traction more than long tire life.
Any recomendations?

I am not an expert y any means, but my old Dunlop SP9000s were amazing for traction. In fact they improved the handling of my old W211 (stock) tremendously. Very sticky. But i am sure there are better tires out there for less money.

Yokohama ADVAN sport .. Very Sticky

I run Michelin PS2's as a daily driver.

I put the Yoko's on when it's time to race. As a daily driver you can't go wrong if you don't care about wearing them out.

Good Luck.

Mine has Potenza RE050A 285/30 ZR19 on the back, with 15k they still look great. I dont know how they compare the PS2's though.

stock tires

my stock have not lasted at all, I have 11,560 miles and I have to replace all four. I went with the cheapest since I'm getting rims within the next 3 months I was trying to hold out as much as possible but I smoked them.

I paid 1100 for some toyo's not the best but it will do for now.
